Word-of-mouth has always carried more weight than any paid ad because people trust people. When a contractor shares, “I helped my customer go solar, and they’re saving money every month,” it makes an impact. That’s the idea behind Polaron’s commercial solar referral program. — a simple way for contractors to refer their own customers and earn up to $1,500 for every successful referral, all while helping clients switch to clean, affordable energy.
It’s a simple setup: if you’re a contractor that refers someone to Polaron, you get a reward when they install a solar system with us. But beyond the incentive, it’s about helping others discover Canada’s solar power incentives and smart commercial solar financing options that financially benefit businesses.

Making Solar Affordable with Commercial Financing
Let’s be honest. Even with incentives, solar isn’t cheap at first glance. That’s where commercial solar financing “Sunline” really shines. Instead of paying everything up front, your business clients can spread the cost over time — often with payments lower than their current utility bills.
It’s a relief for owners who want to save energy but can’t afford the big hit right away. The financing model smooths out that pressure, making solar a steady, realistic path instead of a dream project.
You’re not just suggesting a sound upgrade for their property—you’re providing them sensible financing options that make solar attainable to anyone.Through our commercial referral program, you get a network of people helping one another move toward cleaner energy without confusion or heavy costs.
When Real Stories Create Real Change
Here’s how it plays out in real life. A small manufacturing company in Ontario was tired of unpredictable energy bills. His roofing contractor told him about a Commercial Solar program. The manufacturing company owner reached out to Polaron, learned about Canada’s solar power incentives, and discovered a financing plan that fit their budget.
A few months later, they had panels on the roof and a smaller bill every month. That roofing contractor earned a referral bonus, but more importantly, started a small ripple of change. Now, a few more companies in the same area are exploring solar — all from a few honest conversations with a trusted local pro.
That’s what referral programs do best. They move through communities quietly but effectively, connecting people through real experiences, not pushy marketing.
